What an awesome afternoon at Learn Over Lunch!

A huge thank you to the Cascadia Arts Association for joining us and sharing more about the upcoming Cascadia Fine Arts Festival happening May 16–17, 2026 in beautiful Troutdale.

This incredible community event will feature fine art and artisan crafts from talented Pacific Northwest artists, all set in Historic Downtown Troutdale. It’s the perfect opportunity to explore local restaurants, shops, pubs, and support the arts in our region.

They are currently looking for volunteers to help make this event a success. If you’d like to get involved in the community and support the arts, sign up today!

Shop Local This Holiday Season

As you work through your holiday shopping list, we encourage you to keep your spending close to home. Shopping local is one of the most meaningful ways to support the small businesses that shape the character, convenience, and heart of the West Columbia Gorge community.

When you choose local shops, more of your dollars stay right here in our area, helping business owners pay employees, expand services, and continue investing in the neighborhoods we all care about. Those dollars circulate through our community and strengthen the local economy in powerful ways.

This season, consider choosing local first. When you shop local, you are not just buying a gift. You are fueling local jobs, supporting your neighbors, and helping our community thrive well beyond the holidays.
